The Ziggurat Model is a valuable resource for public school professionals who must remain in compliance <strong>with</strong><br />

federal <strong>and</strong> state guidelines. Specifically, recent trends in special education law emphasize the use of<br />

scientifically based research approaches along <strong>with</strong> a focus on Response to Intervention (RTI). Additionally, there<br />

is a strong push for incorporating positive behavioral interventions <strong>and</strong> supports (PBIS) based on a functional<br />

behavioral assessment. The Ziggurat Model is consistent <strong>with</strong> these practices. The Ziggurat Model is unique.<br />

While it is easy to find volumes of information describing specific interventions, it is difficult to find information on<br />

how to develop an intervention plan. This book presents a process <strong>and</strong> framework for designing comprehensive<br />

interventions for individuals of all ages <strong>with</strong> autism spectrum disorders. The Ziggurat Model was designed to<br />

simplify a complex process. Parents <strong>and</strong> professionals will find the framework of the Ziggurat Model to be a guide<br />

in developing more thorough <strong>and</strong> effective interventions. The book includes assessment tools, case scenarios,<br />

<strong>and</strong> many interventions that were developed <strong>with</strong> their needs in mind.<br />
